Look like the moto z play will be dethroned as battery king

Asus is coming out with a new zenfone, zenfone 3 zoom, it will feature 5000mAh battery and a s625 processor, the rest of the features seem pretty good as well. Not to mention the phone looks like iy has a pretty good thickness for that battery size. What do you guys think.

It nice seeing phones getting better with their battery life. I must say though that the Moto Z play is by far the best phone in terms of battery life I have ever had. I am truly amazed how much battery life I get out of this device.

Any improvements other manufacturers do to cause improvements is welcomed. It drives innovation.

I'm happy with my Z-Play, so won't be changing anytime soon, but the only disadvantage of the MOD over, say, and actual 5000mah+ battery, is that it's no where near as efficient - at least not in my experience. With my normal usage, the Incipio MOD I use drains at about 5-7%ph, whereas the built in unit is 3-4%.

Still, since using the MOD, I've yet to go to bed with my battery below 80% with the MOD on efficiency mode, so still fantastic.
